wife thought i; was no more than right that should let you know what your remedy has done for me. and think so too.
 live in East 157th street, west of Third avenue, and have lived there for about twenty-three years. where l own real estate. Upto the time l am about to mention I lad been a strong, well man. There was always more or less malaria in the nri iglfjnrhood, but had not personally suffered from it. It was in 1880 had my first attack. It came on as such attarks commonly do, with headaches, loss of appetite and ambi- ton, chilly schs ti3nS with slight fever afterwards, disposition to yawn and stretch. and SD forth was employed at that time at Killians & Brothers, furniture manufacturers, in st sgd street. l hoped the attack would wear oif but as it didn't l consulted we'll known and able physt3ian in Morris ania, who gave me q inine and told me what to do. l can sum up the first four and half or five years of my eNperi- ence in few words. Occasionally was laid up for day or two, but on the whole ! stuck to my work. l kept taking quinine. in larger doses from year to year, and kept on getting weak CT and worse. slowly but surely, ali the time My trouble was now well de- fined and it's symptoms were steady and regular. had dumb ague in its worst form, and il was grinding me down in
 1f sf. I Il T ( f, n -ters could do. It held me in grip iike fire i3 q burning coai mine. The poison had gone all through and over me and nothing was able to touch it. l was fast lusing fish md strength, and about March, 1881, knocked off work entire ly and went home to be down sick, and to die for all could tell Iran down so rapidly that l soon became unable to walk any distance. Later l went from room to room in my own house only by friends holding me up by each arm. The doses of quiuine were increased until 1 often look MirtY qratRS at dose. The effects of this tremendous stimulation was to make me nearly wild. It broke my sleep all up, and often walked the floor, or staggered about it, all night long. scarcely able to bear any noises or even human speech. My temper was extremely irritable. As to food, one of my littl,, children would eat more in a meal than l could in a day. 1 would order food and then turn from it in disgust. l lived on qainine and other stilnulaats and on mgseif, like a bear in winter. The quinine set my head in a whirI. and the liquor given as a medicine made my stomach so sick 1 could not tolerate it.
 From 175 pounds (my proper weighD I ran down to 9T potnds-the weight of light girl-and was scarcely better than Il skeleton.
 # angjodY had taken hateket and Knocked me d0iBa aqd killed me should hace been better of.
 During the latter part of this period, early in 1886. my physician said; Miller, there's no use in my taking any more money of you, can't do you any good. might pour pounds of qui- nine down your throat and it wouldn't help you.
 On the strength of this gave up the use of quinine altogether, and made up my mind to do nothing more and take my chances.
 Three weeks afterwards-about the last of May-mv wife saw an advertise mcnt of Kaskine in n New York paper. She told me of it. I said: ''Stulf and nonsense. it can't do me any good. :" But she went to druggists, neverthe- less, to get it. The druggist advised her against Kaskine: he said it was nothing bnt sugar; that she ought not to throw away her money on it. &c. He said he didn't keep it, but could get it if she insisted on having it. Turn ing away in disgust my wife spoke to our neighbor, Mir. A. G. Hegewald, who got her bottle at drug store in Sixth avenue.
 Almost against my will, and without the least faith. 1 began taking it. In one week l was better began to sleep. l stopped seeing ghosts" l began to have an appetite and to gain strength. This was now the first of June, lSS6 and by the end of that Smiths scroll saving factory in 116th street, where work now.
 Since then l have never lost day from sickness. Taking Kaskine only, about forty pellets in four equal doses day. l continued to gain. The ma laria appeared to be killed in my sys- t--n. ,>nd now I've got back my old weight i-l75 pounds-and my old strength to labor am an astonish- mont to myself and to my friends. and if Kaskine did not do this don't know what did. The only greater thing it could do would hc to bring dead man to life. FREDERICK A. MILLER,

 P S.-For the absolute truth of the above statement 1 refer to the following gentlemen, who are personally ac- quanted with the facts: MT. Alex andcr Weir 626 l56ih St. Mr. George Seaman, l5Sth street and Courtlandt avenue; Mir A. Moebus. l54th street and Courtlandt avenue; MT. r. F. Naupel, l5Ith street and Courtlandt avenue; MT ,IOhn Lumny. 630 East l5Sth street; Mir john Renshaw, l2i l25th street. and many others. l will also reply to letters of inquiry.
 We submit that the above astonish- ing cure. yOuched for as 1t is by repu- table men. is deserving of a thorough and candid investigation by thinking people And we further submit that when druggists turn away customers by falsifving the character of a remedy because they do not happen to have it on hand, they do great wrong. If this afflicted man had not disrcgmded the druggist advice and sent clse- where for the remedy he would without doubt have been in his grave.
 Other letters of q similar character from prominent individuals, which stamp Kaskine as remedy of un- doubted merit, will be sent on applica-
